In order to create a responsive layout using Open Framework, all you need to do is place blocks into the appropriate regions. The trick is figuring out which region to place your blocks.
How do I know what region to place my blocks in?
First, review the page on translating designs to responsive regions and the page on understanding the responsive regions. These should give you some idea of where to start.
Here are some common layout solutions using Open Framework regions:
| Desired layout | Regions to use |
|---|---|
| A grid of two blocks across |
2-column-flow |
| A grid of three blocks across |
3-column-flow |
| A grid of four blocks across |
4-column-flow |
| A full-width block above your grid of blocks |
Content Top Content Upper Content Body |
| A full-width block below your grid of blocks |
Content Lower Content Bottom |
| A full-width block above the content body and the sidebars |
Main Top Main Upper |
| A full-width block below the content body and the sidebars |
Main Lower Main Bottom |
To understand the order of the responsive regions, see this page on content hierarchy.
How to place your blocks
The simplist way to place your blocks is by editing the block configuration. Hover over the block, click the gear, and choose Configure block.

In the Region Settings, choose which region in which you would like to place your block from the Open Framework theme dropdown.

You can also use the module Context to create more management block layouts. See our page on how to manage layouts using Context.
